Super yummy, super moist, and super easy! Has a subtle rootbeer flavor that is really delish! I wasn't crazy about the icing - honestly I'm just not nuts about canned frostings to begin with - but it complimented the cake well enough I suppose. Someone with a little more imagination could probably whip up something a lot tastier for a topping than I could, though. If you're looking for something a little out of the ordinary to serve at a party, this is a good way to go.

It was delicious and super moist, but didn't taste a whole lot like root beer.
